Beyonce's Heat .... Leaves me cold

Hello readers... I am a bit disturbed by Miss Beyonce's commercial for her new fragrance "HEAT" Who is this commercial going to influence. Young Girls and young men.
Again, I find myself  wondering what is going on the world.
Beyonce' is a crazy beautiful sexy woman. I am not sure why she felt she had to get this raw to sell a fragrance. She is already a mega star. She would have sold just as much of the fragrance without showing so much of herself. Her breast is all out except the nipple.

The part where she pushes herself into the wall to make her breast jiggle is just plain uncalled for. I am a grown woman and I know that i could swim in a vat of this fragrance and it wouldn't make me anything like Beyonce'. 

A young mind may process this message very differently.

What are we teaching the these girls? The clothes they wear are already to skimpy!
My mother always said " Why by the cow, if you get the milk for free?"  It just seems as if there are boundaries anymore.
                                                     
When is it going to be too much?

I am surprised because I always thought Beyonce' had morals.

The commercial has been banned from daytime TV in the UK and will be aired after 7:30 in the evening.... To me that is still to early, Kids are still up channel surfing at that time. 

Beyonce' is by no means the only one presenting a (in my opinion) a too sexy image, 

It is just so explicit these days.

So many female performers are grinding the air with hardly any clothes on.... and they have such young influential audiences.

Then people will question why so many  youths are engaging in sexual activities much earlier than times past.  Hello, that seems like a no brainer !

This past Sunday I watched the American Music Awards. Rhinna hardly had any clothes on,  Christina Aguilera hardly had any clothes on, Katy Perry rocked a Red Hot Cat suit !!!

All I know is now that childhood is so very brief, and the kids today don't stand a chance at enjoying it; when they are constantly seeing what should be adult images and situations.

We all know.. Sex Sells ... But can we stop selling it to the kids!

As Promised

Ok everyone here it is. My first entry in my newly created blog.  I plan on talking about any and everything here. Because I can! So What is this all about you may wonder. Well I turned 40 last February and I had the revelation Oprah said would happen. Something changes at 40. I have a new attitude! It is getting stronger everyday! It is kind of like what Joel from Risky Business had to learn and that is that sometimes you just have to say "What the F"!!!!!!!  So I am finally going to speak about What's on my mind!
I am learning that no matter how much I think I am in control, I am completely powerless. This lesson has shown itself many times during my life. I am sure we can all relate to the catastrophic events that have been occurring in the world. But I am talking about the everyday things that can pop out of nowhere in your own circle.
Last week I made a comment on Facebook about there being now regulations on music.
I get that we have the right to freedom of speech, which is why I am able to write this blog in the first place. What I don't understand is that so much of the top 100 is listened to by our youth and so many songs are putting information about sex, drugs, violence and guns into the music glorifying these issues. The youth are being influenced in negative ways by this music.
 A National Institutes of Health study proposes that the part of the brain that restrains risky behavior, including reckless driving, and thinking skills is not fully developed until the age of 25. They can not possibly be processing the messages in the music properly. Which leads to bad choices! We as parents need to protest! As a parent it is almost impossible to keep my children from being exposed, Because it is EVERYWHERE! I can block certain channels on my TV to keep my kids from being exposed to certain shows but I can't block the radio? So what is my choice as an adult? If I am driving in the car do I have to keep the radio off? Because I don't know what  words are going to be on the next song?  Music used to have almost subliminal messages in them. You know, like  in Grace Jones's song "Pull up to the bumper baby"
The lyrics say, Pull up to the bumper baby, in your long black limousine,
Pull up to the bumper baby, drive it in between"
Now this song was released in 1981 I was 11 and had no clue what Grace was really singing about. All though I was singing it all the time!
Today there is no more mystery. Hmmmm what is that song about? What is the metaphor?
 No... It is just blunt.... I kissed a girl and i liked it! .... Send a dirty Picture to me ...
All that A@@ hanging out...
End of story
Wow ...What has happened to Music? What is this doing to the children?.....
They are growing up too fast people! let them be kids....
